SANTA RITA, Guam — The USCGC Frederick Hatch crew completed a highly operational patrol period from May 21 to July 1, 2024, demonstrating exceptional versatility and collaboration in maritime security and community engagement across the Pacific region.
Lt. Patrick Dreiss, the commanding officer of the Frederick Hatch, noted, "This patrol spanned multiple missions, from supporting our DoD partners to search and rescue to working alongside regional partners, highlighting how varied Coast Guard operations can be. As my last patrol as commanding officer, it was a fitting end to an incredible two and a half years in Guam, and I have very much enjoyed watching the successes of the crew during my time."
